Balance power supply and demand
Ensure the stability and security of the power grid.
To solve these problems, smart grid is essential.
Smart grid is an upgrade of the existing power grid, which makes it have distributed local intelligence, higher security and efficiency, and stronger control ability.
Smart grid provides a solution for how to transform hierarchical power grid system into distributed power grid.
With the remarkable changes in people's living habits in the past 20 years, intelligent infrastructure has attracted more and more attention:
Today, more than half of the world's population lives in cities.
From 1990 to 20 12 and 1, the number of cities with a population of more than 1 10,000 has almost doubled, and continues to grow.
Twenty years ago, household energy consumption mainly came from "basic needs", such as lighting, heating and cooking.
Nowadays, more and more energy consumption comes from multimedia, communication and IT equipment.
These changes require us to thoroughly reflect on the way we use energy, and mean a rapid transformation to smart cities and smart homes. The former will well manage the mobility, lighting and energy needed by citizens, while the latter will minimize unnecessary energy losses such as power loss and standby loss, and both will realize the integration of renewable energy and the balance of demand/supply.
During the transition from the current infrastructure to the "smart" infrastructure, many factors need to be considered:
Prevent fraud and malicious attacks, ensure the security, intelligent devices, sensors and MCU needed for distributed control, reduce power consumption and provide reliable and efficient power semiconductors needed for important services such as energy.
Infineon has a large number of semiconductor product portfolios for smart grids, cities and homes.
Aiming at greatly improving energy efficiency.
